In August 2005, Oracle (PeopleSoft) conducted a benchmark to measure the concurrent batch and online performance of selected processes in Oracle’s PeopleSoft Enterprise Campus Solutions 8.9 w/MP 1 with SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition. The benchmark was run on a HP Integrity rx8620 database server, with Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Datacenter Edition. The typical tasks performed in this benchmark include processing refunds (credits or financial aid), processing test scores, standard class tasks (add class, calculate tuition, drop class, load student center, make a payment, and schedule planner validation). The testing was conducted in a controlled environment with no other applications running. Tuning changes were approved by PeopleSoft Development and will be available in a future update or release.

In November 2003, Hewlett-Packard and PeopleSoft conducted a benchmark in Houston, Texas to measure the online performance of PeopleSoft Financials 8.4 with SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition Service Pack 3a and QFE 856 on a Hewlett-Packard ProLiant DL740 database server, running Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition.
The benchmark measured client response times for a single user, 4,000, 7,000, 10,000, and 13,000 concurrent users using a standard "small" data composition model. The testing was conducted in a controlled environment with no other applications running. Tuning changes were approved by PeopleSoft Development and will be available in a future update or release.

In April 2002, Microsoft and Unisys posted an unparalleled performance benchmark for PeopleSoft 8 CRM, Release 8.4 for Services, Sales, and Collaborative Selling. The online benchmark demonstrates the scalability of running the PeopleSoft CRM solution on a Unisys ES7000 server with a SQL Server 2000 database and a Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server operating system.
PeopleSoft 8 CRM 8.4 for Services, Sales and Collaborative Selling (SSCS) is based on an open, extensible, pure Internet architecture, connecting people—customers, suppliers, partners, and employees—to business processes online and in real time. The result is improved enterprise performance and lower costs of doing business. The PeopleSoft benchmark demonstrates the software's performance characteristics for a range of processing volumes in a specific configuration.
The benchmark demonstrates support for 25,200 simulated concurrent users and performed CRM transactions at the rate of 2,024 business processes per minute. These results were achieved on a 24-processor Unisys ES7000 database server and yielded average response times between one and two seconds.
The benchmark simulated enterprise users performing demanding tasks associated with PeopleSoft 8 CRM 8.4 SSCS transactions on a Unisys ES7000 database server with 24 processors running Windows 2000 Datacenter Server and SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition. "This new benchmark shows PeopleSoft CRM customers can get incomparable performance scalability with SQL Server 2000, Windows 2000 Datacenter Server, and Unisys Enterprise Server ES7000s," said Gordon Mangione, vice president of SQL Server at Microsoft. "The large number of concurrent users and processed transactions is proof that this architecture meets the needs of collaborative enterprises."
"We're excited to add this important measure of enterprise computing performance to the array of benchmark records the Unisys ES7000 has accumulated running Microsoft's Windows 2000 Datacenter Server and SQL Server 2000," said Mike Thomas, vice president, Unisys Global Partners. "Because of its widespread use in the large enterprises we specialize in serving, PeopleSoft is an important part of our strategic program to combine mainframe-class computing characteristics with the superior economics of Windows-based computing. This achievement is another very important key milestone for us."
